Just got a 2014 HSE Sport a few months ago (the Super Charged V6 here in the States), and it's a dream. We got it with decent mileage (40k miles) and a great price (about $35k / £27k), and we managed to get the one with the heated steering wheel and the center console fridge. They are incredibly capable and you're absolutely right! They're a great find if they're in decent shape (ours was garage kept by the first owner), and if well maintained, they make an excellent option! Love your videos here in the US!

Hi. Another really good video - and an honest review. I have just sold a 64 plate and after 12 months ownership I made £500 because the main dealers have no stock - I did want a Vogue 12 months old but ................ walked away with a new Defender SE and its an amazing car! More Discovery than Defender in bloodline but there is enough Defender in there just to warrant the name. Keep the videos coming, especially with another lockdown - get your drive full of cars this time!

Love the review.. I have just changed up from an 2012 evoque which I had for 4 years, with just normal servicing costs. Which pulled my heavy caravan up and down the Devon and Cornwall hills, with no surprises and breakdowns to a 2017 RRS hse 3.0d 306 hp in Loire blue with 23000 on the clock and I just love it. First thing I had fitted was a ghost ll immobiliser for peace of mind.. what I didn’t want was low profile wheels, the t.v. Which I never used in the evoque,I hope to keep this one for at least 10 years which will then have me approaching 80yrs I haven’t any warranty but will maintain and drive this lovely car the same way as the evoque. I honestly get such a buzz from driving it as smoothly and as safely as possible.. this car seems to give me a pat on the back every time I get behind the wheel, it makes me feel as though I deserve it. Daft I know, but there you go....

In 2017, a year before the last significant upgrade to the L494, there was a very light upgrade of the in-car entertainment. It gained a new screen, which was effectively the top half of the Touch Pro Duo system that went first into the Velar when it was released. Significantly, it no longer had the buttons at either side - the whole area was now LCD. It got the SIM function in the centre console box, along with the WiFi hotspot that provided and a better Sat Nav data integration. The response of the on-screen buttons was massively improved, and it is upgradable by a dealer to match the latest layout, including Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. If you can afford this 2017 facelift model, then I believe it's well worth it. Everything else, however, is the same as the 2015 model.

IMO think the Range Rover Sport is nicer looking and better proportioned than the bigger RR although it doesn't have so much of the " Out of the way plebs!" presence as the full size beast. Good review and good advice on keeping back part of the budget plus setting aside £100 per month for repairs - a better propostion than buying an insurance backed used car warranty that will probably have more catches than a victorian corset!

Had the same experience as you, my mate has one his Mrs has one I driven both nice bit of kit I personally preferred his Westminster and I could have had it but it doesn't suit my lifestyle. We came off the same council estate raggedy arse'd kids with nothing, hard work and sacrifice helped us achieve far more than I could have dreamed of as a kid, my mate and his brother took it to a different level. They are both exactly the same but have the finer things in life, I remember them driving old Bison tippers back in the day, no floor candles for a heaters in the winter like a sauna in the summer and up till 2am changing diffs and half shafts lying in shite and water. Now the volvos, and scania's are like any luxury vehicle to drive.

father in law has one of those, 15 plate autobiography in this grey-blue colour during lockdown he bought facelift bumpers & headlamps & has fitted them to the car himself, then paid a company in italy or somewhere like that to program the lights to his car... over skype... saves a lot of cash in long run, the lights & bumpers & cost to paint it & match it all up is quite excessive but you can sell the old bumpers & headlights & not have to spend a fortune on a facelift

Great reassuring review. I traded my 2013 RRS Autobiography (old shape) last year for a 2016 L494 in silver with the full black pack. Just clicked over 50k Miles now, much lighter and seems quicker than the last one, fuel economy appears to be better too. The auto lowering is my favourite feature on this new model. Great off road too. I just wish supermarket carpark spaces were wider. Sometimes makes me wish I had kids again....🤔No, does it F......!

Hi Mat, great advice. 9months in and no real breakdowns for me in my l494 HSE dynamic, pan roof and black pack+360cams. After 3 weeks the EPB stuck on for a few hours, no real reason. Been off-road in UK and Spain. Since then, faultless and luxurious. 3 week trip to Spain with 3000 miles. Perfect. MOT no faults. Only costs have been oil and filter change, gearbox flush and a pair of rear brake pads. Oh and a set of wiper blades.

This is the model i would get, i dont know if i want the V6 or V8 petrol though (i only go the petrol route, always premium fuel, Just due to my driving style it costs less for me to fill up my XE S than a 1.6 juke, or any other small turbo car for that matter) when i done my visits to the JLR dealers and had a test drive of a few cars, every one of them felt enjoyable but not stressfull to drive, and if it only costs a bit extra to maintain when things do happen, Its a small price to pay overall, because its likely you saved some of that cost through a deal on the initial purchase price anyway.

Just brought myself a L320, 2011 reg but the 2012 version (turn knob etc). Best car ive ever owned...albeit for nearly 2 months. Timing belt was changed during sale from the garage and 6 month warranty. Touch wood nothing has gone wrong. Im currently looking into a gearbox fluid change and then saving 1-2k just like you said in case of any other repairs. Done just under 100k miles.

Hi Matt. Finally took the plunge and got a Loire blue RRS autobiography. I’m absolutely loving it and have tried to catch you a couple of times now on the school run after you’ve picked Si up. Who do you use locally to do your work please as I want to use someone who knows the cars and do a good job. Thanks Matt and hopefully speak soon 👍🏼

hear me out, if u buy a range rover u have to really take a look at what engines are brakeing often (and ofc if the car was maintained/taken care off). If i would be buying another land rover i would buy a 306hp 3.0 diesel or a 256hp 3.0 diesel. Those engines are the most reliable in my opinion. I had 3 of them neither of them broke and with my friend who had a 292hp diesel engine same with my friend who had a 2 liter one it broke and he had to replace the whole engine. So if u buy one get one of those two engines all other ones arent so reliable. Defenitly dont go with 2 liter ones, they are braking constantly cuz such a small engine is never gonna be enough for such a big and heavy car

Love the man’s input for our benefit. Makes you think of things I wouldn’t think of when looking for a car which is very much appreciated. Never owned a RRS & I’m not getting any younger so thought, ‘why not!?’ , might be my last car ? (I’m due a bus pass soon 😢) Matts just pointed out couple reasons why I’m not quite ready yet & has just saved me from purchasing a RRS HSE sdv6 for around the 17K mark. I’ll be patient & wait for my luxury 2nd/3rd hand car with more knowledge about what2 check for, what2 do etc..😉🙂 Thanks mate. Ps: Was Going2 subscribe for gratitude gesture but I’ve already subscribed! Should maybe get more involved & enter your live draw competitions now. Maybe win a RRS 😂😂

I’m very happy to hear that the Range Rover Sport finally has become very good and dependable. Many years ago a friend bought a brand top-spec new one which soon became a nightmare, with all sorts of issues that the ‘experts’ couldn’t fix. Finally the car was returned to the dealer as more or less crap.
